Arlington (Texas) Martin safety Devonta Sparks has an impressive highlight tape. It is one that shows that he is everything college coaches would want in a strong safety - a physical defender with an ability to make plays close to the line of scrimmage.

Early on, this led to offers from Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, TCU and Tulsa and interest from several other schools. However, some colleges wanted to see additional film of Sparks in order to see if he could make plays deep in the secondary as well. Sparks and Martin head coach Bob Wager obliged them and, as a result, three more offers came in over the past two days.
